  1. I didn't hear any whistle on the replay, don't see why one would have been blown; seemed like the call was a kick. My buddy lives in Long Beach....was pretty pissed about the Barclay's move and thrilled when they moved back to the Nassau Mausoleum.
  2. Yeah, I saw the no-goal. Rebound came right back to him, too close to handle so he kicked it with his back skate as he was going past. Wasn't blatant but it was a kick; almost certainly intending to knock the puck back out in front and instead ended up in the net. It was the right call. I have a buddy who's had NYI seasons as long as I've known him, he's been so fired up this year. Tough to go down 0-2 at home, but if they start getting the bounces this series isn't over. Not that I'm rooting for them really, but they've fallen pretty far down my Eastern Conference hate chart since the 80s.
  3. Islanders giving this series away. They finish like they're wearing two condoms.
  4. Calvin & Hobbs Bloom County (original version, never read the reboot) Dilbert Doonesbury (old school....I'm sure like everything else, it's pure propaganda since Bush Jr) The Far Side
  5. But it's a good point that Nightline and those kinds of shows got into the long format 'coverage' which was the precursor to today's nonstop crapfest. Fast forward 30 years and they've figured how to literally get people permanently addicted to mindless, phony crap like 'Russian meddling' to keep them tuned in hour after hour. News networks is now the mental equivalent of porn.
  6. Oh you are so wrong!! Don't you remember back when we had "One New York" in the glorious days of Beame/Koch/Dinkins? Then the voters insanely turned it over to Rudy/Bloomy for 20 years and next thing you know NYC is full of all these rich people and new buildings! It's been a horror show! Do you know how long it's been since you had the convenience of multiple drug dealers operating in Bryant Park??
  7. Huh? Why would he not be 'allowed' into the league? Did he kill someone or beat his girlfriend unconscious?
  8. You say you stand by your man Tell me something I don't understand You said you love me and that's a fact And then you left me, said you felt trapped Well some things you can explain away But the heartache's in me till this day Did you stand by me No, not at all Did you stand by me No way
  9. The turning point was the creation of CNN and the realization that news could be a major profit center. That was the end of journalistic integrity. As I say to people all the time, when I was a kid there was 22 minutes worth of news per day, and it was covered in 22 minutes on TV at 6:30pm. There is still 22 minutes worth of news per day....and it is covered 24x7x365.
  10. Escaped and got a nose job, apparently.
  11. I don't get the desire by people to trash these kids over some old twitters minutes after they are drafted. Pathetic.
  12. I love that.....she was who she was till the end. Great story.
  13. Wow...for just the 62nd pick? Big discount from last year! Arizona finally realizes they aren't going to get a big price for him.
  14. ***** yes. Rudolph is a horse. That would be a great pick up, and doesn't mean they can't still draft a TE too.
  15. Good stuff. The Russell Wilson one is hilarious.
  16. In the town where I was born Lived a man who sailed to sea And he told us of his life In the land of submarines
  17. While obviously immaterial, that does add to the image of Rosen as an immature douchebag. I guess simply 'not looking at twitter' wasn't an option. He got off to the worst possible start and that has killed other careers, but the jury is still out on him. Still, I wouldn't sweat him going to the Dolphins. If it's not Rosen, they'll be picking a QB early in the first round next year.
